Gregg Popovich has coached the San Antonio Spurs for 27 years.

This list includes the date of hiring and the performance record of National Basketball Association head coaches. The league consists of 30 teams, of which 29 are located in the United States and one in Canada. In the NBA, a head coach is the highest ranking coach of a coaching staff.

Gregg Popovich has served as head coach of the San Antonio Spurs for 27 years. No other current NBA head coach has been head coach of his current team as long as Popovich has been head coach of the Spurs. Popovich has also coached more games (2,127), won more games (1,366), and lost more games (761) than any other active head coach has with his current team. Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra is the second longest-tenured NBA head coach, having been head coach of the Heat since the 2008–09 season. Popovich is the only active head coach inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame as a coach.[1] Popovich is the only current head coach to have been hired by his current team in the 1990s.

As of June 13, 2023, 15 coaches have spent their entire NBA head coaching careers with their current teams: Gregg Popovich with the San Antonio Spurs, Erik Spoelstra with the Miami Heat, Steve Kerr with the Golden State Warriors, Taylor Jenkins with the Memphis Grizzlies, Mark Daigneault with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Chris Finch with the Minnesota Timberwolves, Will Hardy with the Utah Jazz, Chauncey Billups with the Portland Trail Blazers, Jamahl Mosley with the Orlando Magic, Wes Unseld Jr. with the Washington Wizards, Willie Green with the New Orleans Pelicans, Darvin Ham with the Los Angeles Lakers, Joe Mazzulla with the Boston Celtics, Adrian Griffin with the Milwaukee Bucks, and Darko Rajaković with the Toronto Raptors.

Popovich, Spoelstra, Kerr, and Michael Malone have won NBA championships with their current teams, while Rick Carlisle, Tyronn Lue, Nick Nurse, and Frank Vogel have won with their former teams.
